So what she said was:
>We have, in the past, supported Israel when there have been missiles coming in. I’m not going to comment on what might happen in the future, but so far, we haven’t been involved, and we’re sending in assets to both protect ourselves and also potentially to support our allies.
So this is a standard response of “we haven’t done anything, but prepared in the case we need to” which is probably the reasonable thing to do right now.
I compare Iran to a country being run by the Manson Family, a dwindling number of violent 60s counter culture religious cultists ghouls holding a country hostage: there’s no telling what they might do if they are indeed losing grip. It’s wise to be prepared.
That and they’re launching missiles over a number of allied nations and it’s a good idea to be prepared to shoot some down if necessary.
They shoot down Iranian missiles but not Israeli ones. Israel started the engagement so if UK shoots Iranian missiles down then we’ve joined the war on Israel’s side, if not already.
Maybe not, but we are definitely in a new cold war era now and it seems perfectly possible things will tip into full-scale war at some point.
We’re defending a bully in the middle east that needs to be humbled
A novel idea, let’s stay out of it. Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria. Haven’t we learned yet?
Do we really want another huge surge of migration from the middle east into Europe and the UK?
The UK was never officially at war with Iraq, Afghanistan or Argentina in those wars either so I wouldn’t expect any other response even if the RAF were carrying out airstrikes themselves in Iran.
Good job we’re not at war, with the amount of undocumented young men piling into the country each year. That would certainly be a problem if there were countries and/or regimes out there that didn’t wish us well.
